Bohuslavice (Jihomoravský kraj, Czech Republic)
Bohuslavice (German: Bohuslawitz, Postlawitz, Poslawitz; now Bohuslavice u Kyjova, Okres Hodonín, Jihomoravský kraj), a village near Kyjov (Gaya) in Moravia (coordinates: 49.050278°, 17.120833° [49° 3′ 1″ N, 17° 7′ 15″ E], belonging to the domains of Bucovice. In 1545 the Hutterian Brethren acquired a house here with a mill, in the spring of the following year another house, and on 7 May 1547, the third house. Although this seems to have been one of the larger Bruderhofs, it was apparently abandoned later. Nothing more is heard of it, nor is it mentioned in the list of the Bruderhofs vacated in 1622.
